## About

On the third Saturday of the month the Fleet opens its galleries an hour early for a sensory-friendly visit, then screens a documentary in the Giant Dome at 10 a.m. with house lights on and the volume low (Sea Otters in November, Pandas in December). Visitors may stay all day; noise-canceling headsets are available at the ticket counter.
